I'm revisiting this record tonight because I recent;y won a Christmas LP by this same group on eBay. I don't know if it's the same music, and I really don't care. I mostly wanted it for it's great cover. I expect to get it in the mail soon, but I doubt if I'll be able to do anything with it until next Christmas But in the meantime, I'm hoping this LP I first shared out last year will hold you over. Here is The Deutschmeister Band, Conducted By Julius Herrmann-Christmas Carols (Westminster WST 15048, Stereo). The question arises in my mind as to what year this was issued. Searching Billboard's archives keeps coming back with 1953, but that's obviously not the stereo version. Perhaps this is a stereo re-recording of that one, or maybe a release of some early binaural copy. Any ideas?

Hi Ernie,I have been trying to download your Fred Waring and the Pennsylvanians "Twas the Night Before Chrismas" from UseNext, but it doesn't seem to work and I don't have a premium subscription to RapidShare. My father played this album every Christmas and I've been searching for it on CD or digital file. Can you please help? Thank you SO much...it would make his and my Christmas if I could give a copy to him of his old favorite album!

Brilliant! Thank you so much. I tried about 5 times today on RapidShare, but it kept saying that I needed a premium account to download the file. I was able to download it tonight without trouble. Thank you, thank you,thank you!!!

Got Vinyl?

Ernie's Christmas record want list. There might be something in that stack of Christmas records you want to throw out that I need. Actually, there's a lot more that I need that I don't know about, so send 'em all to me (especially singles)! (Revised 03 March 2018)
